Summary

Academically, Foothill School performs well above district and state levels in every reported subject and grade. Mathematics proficiency ranged from 68.8% to 77.8%, while science was especially strong: 83.6% of fourth graders, 85.3% of fifth graders, and 80.1% of sixth graders were proficient. Sixth-grade math is another standout, with 68.8% proficiency compared with 47.7% in the district and 37.4% statewide. The school’s overall results are stronger and more consistent than those of most nearby schools.

Although its rank has slipped from seventh statewide in 2023–2024, Foothill School remains an elite school with sustained strengths in science, mathematics, and overall academic consistency.
